"In preparation for my Christmas film, White Reindeer, I watched this movie and wrote down a description of every single shot, including each camera move and change in blocking. Not only is Heaven Sirk’s most fully realized, subversive takedown of suburban hypocrisy, it’s also the best Christmas movie of all time, and such a marvel of style and camera direction that you barely notice how intricate its construction is until you force yourself to examine it. Sirk said that, in cinema, “motion is emotion,” and that ethos reaches its zenith in the zoom in on Jane Wyman’s reflection in a television screen. This is nothing less than the greatest dolly movie in cinema history. If anyone ever tells you irony and sincerity can’t coexist, tell them they are painfully, tragically wrong."

Rolling Stone's 343rd greatest album of all time
I'm still in shock at how early in the top 500 this appears. I would have thought it would be at least top 200, if not top 50. The title track is one of the best known rock songs ever, and yet so many people won't have heard the full album version - in my opinion the section removed for the single is the best part of the song.
Added to this the superb Paradise by the Dashboard Light, Two out of Three Ain't Bad (I was told off by my wife for suggesting this referred to our three kids) and You Took The Words Right Out My Mouth, as well as the sombre heartfelt Heaven Can Wait.
Just an utterly superb album.
